Half-Truths by Claire Contreras

4.0

I started this book on a whim and tbh I have no regrets. This was such a fun read and its been so long since I felt like I couldn't stop reading this book. I do wish we had more Logan chapters ,but he was hiding a lot of secrets so I guess its fine lol. The whole concept of the secret society was super cool and interesting concept. One thing that I couldn't help ,but laugh about was the whole time I was like " this is some white people shit" whole time this man is lightskin. Once he said " oh my mom is black" all of his nonsense made sense LMFAOOO. Their relationship was a mess from beginning to end and I feel like he babied her about the stuff happening in their society. Overall I liked them together and this book was so fun to read. I also loved all the side characters and they need their own books IMMEDIATELY please and thank you Claire. 



SPOILERS!!!!!!
One thing I was NOT expecting was her "friend" to be her half sister and try to murder her. There was a moment before when I just thought "wouldn't it be crazy" if that happened.....and then it did lol. Her dad being in that sex mentorship was so fucking weird ,but I didn't think that he killed Lana. I thought the other chick did cuz I feel he had no need ,but regardless I'm glad her mom got away from that man cuz homegirl was STRESSED tf out. I honestly felt so bad for the guy who helped the half sister ( I forgot his name) because he had no choice ,but to help her. I hope he was just put into a facility where people take care of him cuz he doesn't deserve jail. The burying alive part had me so stressed like the fact she was in there for 5 days was crazy. I genuinely can't believe she lasted that long especially since there could have been a lot of CO2 in the box once she was in there so i just chose to not think too miuch about it.
